Automatic Accuracy Estimation for Audio Transcriptions

1. A computer-implemented method for estimating the accuracy of a transcription of a voice recording, comprising: transcribing the voice recording into the transcription of the voice recording; receiving the transcription of the voice recording; providing a customer specific dictionary; providing a dictionary of common language words; determining a number of inaccurate words in the transcription; determining a number of accurate words in the transcription; determining a total number of words in the transcription; calculating an accuracy number by dividing the number of accurate words by the total number of words; assigning a greater weight to at least one word exceeding a predefined number of characters as compared to at least one other word below the predetermined number of characters; retrieving, from a data structure, a set of axioms associated with at least one of the words in the transcription, wherein the set of axioms comprises a computer-parsable definition of a relationship of data to the at least one of the words; and assigning a confidence level to each axiom of the set of axioms based on an output of a Gaussian function applied to a result of the dividing and the assigning of weight.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the step of calculating an accuracy number comprises dividing the number of inaccurate words by the total number of words.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the step of determining a number of inaccurate words comprises identifying the number of words not found in either the customer specific dictionary or the dictionary of common language words.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the step of determining a number of inaccurate words comprises identifying the number of words determined to be spelled incorrectly.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the common language words are in the English language.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising determining the length of each word in the transcription.

7. A system for estimating the accuracy of a transcription of a voice recording, comprising: a memory medium comprising instructions; a bus coupled to the memory medium; and an audio transcription tool coupled to the bus that when executing the instructions causes the system to: transcribe the voice recording into the transcription of the voice recording; receive the transcription of the voice recording; provide a customer specific dictionary; provide a dictionary of common language words; determine a number of inaccurate words in the transcription; determine a number of accurate words in the transcription; determine a total number of words in the transcription; calculate an accuracy number by dividing the number of accurate words by the total number of words; assign a greater weight to at least one word exceeding a predefined number of characters as compared to at least one other word below the predetermined number of characters; retrieve, from a data structure, a set of axioms associated with at least one of the words in the transcription, wherein the set of axioms comprises a computer-parsable definition of a relationship of data to the at least one of the words; and assign a confidence level to each axiom of the set of axioms based on an output of a Gaussian function applied to a result of the dividing and the assigning of weight.

8. The system of claim 7 , the memory medium further comprising instructions for causing the system to calculate the accuracy number by dividing the number of inaccurate words by the total number of words.

9. The system of claim 7 , the memory medium further comprising instructions for causing the system to determine a number of inaccurate words by identifying the number of words not found in either the customer specific dictionary or the dictionary of common language words.

10. The system of claim 7 , the memory medium further comprising instructions for causing the system to determine a number of inaccurate words by identifying the number of words determined to be spelled incorrectly.

11. The system of claim 7 , wherein the common language words are in the English language.

12. The system of claim 7 , the memory medium further comprising instructions for causing the system to determine the length of each word in the transcription.

13. A computer program product for estimating the accuracy of a transcription of a voice recording, the computer program product comprising a computer readable hardware storage device, and program instructions stored on the computer readable hardware storage device, to: transcribe the voice recording into the transcription of the voice recording; receive the transcription of the voice recording; provide a customer specific dictionary; provide a dictionary of common language words; determine a number of inaccurate words in the transcription; determine a number of accurate words in the transcription; determine a total number of words in the transcription; calculate an accuracy number by dividing the number of accurate words by the total number of words; assign a greater weight to at least one word exceeding a predefined number of characters as compared to at least one other word below the predetermined number of characters; retrieve, from a data structure, a set of axioms associated with at least one of the words in the transcription, wherein the set of axioms comprises a computer-parsable definition of a relationship of data to the at least one of the words; and assign a confidence level to each axiom of the set of axioms based on an output of a Gaussian function applied to a result of the dividing and the assigning of weight.

14. The computer program product of claim 13 , the computer readable hardware storage device further comprising instructions to calculate the accuracy number by dividing the number of inaccurate words by the total number of words.

15. The computer program product of claim 13 , the computer readable hardware storage device further comprising instructions to determine a number of inaccurate words by identifying the number of words not found in either the customer specific dictionary or the dictionary of common language words.

16. The computer program product of claim 13 , the computer readable hardware storage device further comprising instructions for causing the system to determine a number of inaccurate words by identifying the number of words determined to be spelled incorrectly.

17. The computer program product of claim 13 , wherein the common language words are in the English language.

18. The computer program product of claim 13 , the computer readable hardware storage device further comprising instructions to determine the length of each word in the transcription.

19. A method for deploying a system for identifying commands for estimating the accuracy of a transcription of a voice recording, comprising: providing a computer infrastructure being operable to: transcribe the voice recording into the transcription of the voice recording; receive the transcription of the voice recording; provide a customer specific dictionary; provide a dictionary of common language words; determine a number of inaccurate words in the transcription; determine a number of accurate words in the transcription; determine a total number of words in the transcription; calculate an accuracy number by dividing the number of accurate words by the total number of words; assign a greater weight to at least one word exceeding a predefined number of characters as compared to at least one other word below the predetermined number of characters; retrieve, from a data structure, a set of axioms associated with at least one of the words in the transcription, wherein the set of axioms comprises a computer-parsable definition of a relationship of data to the at least one of the words; and assign a confidence level to each axiom of the set of axioms based on an output of a Gaussian function applied to a result of the dividing and the assigning of weight.
